From Mortal Body to Immortality

#31 - Long business, five elements artistic conception

“Five Elements Fist?”

Lu Sheng was clearly a bit surprised after hearing Gao Feng's words.

After all, he hadn't thought there'd be any connection between the slow progress of the Longevity Posture and the Five Elements Fist.

Gao Feng, seeing Lu Sheng's somewhat stunned expression, said with a chuckle, “You thought the Five Elements Fist and the Longevity Posture weren't related?

But the Five Elements Fist… your progress is a bit slow.”

“The Five Elements Fist and the Longevity Posture complement each other.

Once the Five Elements Fist progresses, the Longevity Posture will naturally improve as well.”

Hearing this, Lu Sheng gradually understood.

He realized why his Longevity Posture progress had slowed down; it turned out these two factors were at play.

“It seems I need to improve my Five Elements Fist progress next.”

Thinking this, Lu Sheng looked at Gao Feng with anticipation.

Gao Feng cultivated the Longevity Posture, and his level was even higher than Lu Sheng's, which meant Gao Feng's skill in the Five Elements Fist was also extraordinary.

“You little rascal, you're quite the slippery one.”

Gao Feng pointed at Lu Sheng, jokingly scolding him, then took a sip of strong tea, his expression gradually becoming serious.

To be honest, Lu Sheng's progress in the Longevity Posture was already only slightly behind his own; such cultivation talent was quite astonishing.

“This kid might just be a martial arts genius.”

Gao Feng smiled and shook his head, then turned to Lu Sheng and said solemnly.

“Before you cultivate the Five Elements Fist, I still need to explain some knowledge about the Longevity Posture.”

Hearing Gao Feng's words, Lu Sheng understood that Gao Feng was about to share some valuable insights.

“The Longevity Posture, although it's just a relatively basic technique, can have unexpected effects if you can cultivate it to perfection.”

“This method can greatly improve a martial artist's patience and even lifespan, which is why the lifespan of the elderly in our Human Federation is generally much higher than before.”

“Besides that, the most important thing about the Longevity Posture… is that once someone cultivates it to perfection, they can comprehend an artistic conception unique to the Longevity Posture!”

“And this artistic conception is called the Longevity Intent!”

“The Longevity Intent is a martial arts treasure left behind by the predecessor who created the Longevity Posture, and this predecessor is even the teacher of the current White Emperor!”

“Of course, there are only a handful of martial artists who can comprehend the Longevity Intent; even I haven't been able to comprehend it.”

Gao Feng's tone was clearly regretful when he said this.

After all, he, Gao Feng, had painstakingly studied the Longevity Posture for many days, but in the end, he still failed to successfully comprehend the Longevity Intent.

Lu Sheng blinked, and what caught his attention, besides the Longevity Intent, was the originator of this Longevity Posture.

He was actually the current White Emperor's teacher.

Even though he had passed away, the Longevity Intent left behind by a predecessor who could teach someone like the White Emperor was probably not simple.

Thinking of this, Lu Sheng felt somewhat expectant about the Longevity Intent that Gao Feng mentioned.

“Besides that, the Five Elements Fist, as a complementary martial art to the Longevity Posture, will also allow you to comprehend an artistic conception unique to the martial artist once you cultivate it to perfection.”

At this time, Gao Feng continued to speak.

“The Five Elements Fist artistic conception is divided into five parts, which are the artistic conceptions of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.

Each martial artist who cultivates the Five Elements Fist will comprehend a different artistic conception.”

“And what I have comprehended… is the Jia Wood artistic conception, one of the five elements!”

As he spoke, Gao Feng stood up from his chair.

In an instant, an aura filled with endless vitality burst out from Gao Feng's body, and a fist was pushed out horizontally, as if a lush tree rose from the ground, scattering endless vitality.

“The Jia Wood artistic conception is Yang Wood, like a towering tree, full of vitality!”

“Under this move, one should use endless vitality to wrap everything together and burst out with powerful combat strength!”

Gao Feng's voice kept ringing in Lu Sheng's ears, while Lu Sheng stared intently at Gao Feng's movements, seemingly mesmerized.

Under Gao Feng's demonstration, Lu Sheng involuntarily began to practice the Five Elements Fist.

Although the gap between him and Gao Feng was still large, with Lu Sheng's continuous practice, his progress was rapid.

【Ding, Five Elements Fist proficiency +1】

【Ding, Five Elements Fist proficiency +1】

【Ding, Five Elements Fist proficiency +1】

System notifications kept appearing before Lu Sheng's eyes.

Soon, an hour passed, and under Gao Feng's demonstration and guidance, Lu Sheng's Five Elements Fist progressed rapidly.

In just one hour, his proficiency increased by a full five points.

At this time, Lu Sheng finally understood why Gao Feng said that the Five Elements Fist and the Longevity Posture complemented each other.

His Longevity Posture proficiency level had reached Level 4, and when he practiced the Five Elements Fist under Gao Feng's guidance, the insights from the high-level Longevity Posture also promoted Lu Sheng's understanding of the Five Elements Fist.

This was why Lu Sheng's Five Elements Fist proficiency had soared by a full five points in just one hour!

“Alright, it's about time for today, let's stop here!”

Lu Sheng looked at Lu Sheng, who was covered in sweat, and couldn't help but smile.

He also saw Lu Sheng's progress in the Five Elements Fist and was even more satisfied with Lu Sheng.

“Tomorrow is the midterm exam, it's not suitable to cultivate too late today.

It's better to save some energy to deal with tomorrow's exam, which is extremely important for you after all.”

“Of course, don't cultivate too late after you go back, because cultivation is about combining work and rest, understand?”

Gao Feng instructed Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng grinned, wiped the sweat from his body, and said to Gao Feng, “Got it, Teacher Gao, then I'll go first!”

After saying that, Lu Sheng packed up his things and turned to leave Gao Feng's office.

“This brat…”

Looking at Lu Sheng's departing figure, Gao Feng couldn't help but smile and scold.

“This kid's martial arts talent… is really not bad.

His Longevity Posture progress is almost catching up to me, and even his understanding of the Five Elements Fist… is quite amazing.”

“Most importantly… it's this little guy's Qi and blood…”

Gao Feng murmured, unable to stop himself from narrowing his eyes.

“His Qi and blood have already reached 70 Cal, and there are still no signs of any limit.

You should know that even Yang Meng found it quite difficult when his Qi and blood reached 70 Cal.”

“If this situation continues, it shouldn't be difficult for this little guy's Qi and blood to reach the 80 Cal mark, and maybe… he can even break through to a higher level!”
